“THE PRESIDENT IS HUMAN. HE GETS SICK”
— White House Press Secretary Responding to Reporters’ Questions in The New York Times, January 9, 1992
A thousand tiny dots of light:
I diminish the noise.
Duped smirk on aging face,
eyes eclipsed by spectacles,
The President,
previously recorded,
vomits,
moving his lips slowly.
Watching me watching him
he holds my stare
kindly, gently.
Reading my thoughts,
George Herbert Walker Bush
